The Gunslinger by Steven King.

He wrote some dark and towerry other books, but they're unrelated fan fiction

The last episode of Supernatural should not exist.

I watched this one late and saw all the talk online about stopping after season 5 or 6 whatever and haven't regretted my decision to follow that advice.

Yep. Season 1-5 is a complete and well done story. Anything after that is just if you really enjoy watching the boys get up hijinks.

I did enjoy watching them get up to hijinks but I didn't want to get trapped trying to complete 14 more seasons of mediocre story telling. I am I big fan of the "monster of the week" type shows which are few and far between these days, but it didn't seem worth it from what I read.

If we are going into books, the Hyperion series should have ended at 2. The first 2 books are so good! Books 3 and 4 are terrible.

Episode IV. That's my hill.

NeuTrek. TNG squeeks by, but any Trek with a dysfunctional, corrupt Federation with a Black Ops team is out.

The West Wing, season 4. After Sorkin left it went to shit.

Ren & Stimpy was hit or miss, but really after the first season it fell off a cliff pretty fast.

Nobody's ever done an adaptation of Asimov's The Foundation Trilogy, which is too bad.

TLoTR had 3 movies; everything after has been just a shitty job of milking the success of the first 3. Which is too bad, because Cumberbuzzle was brilliant as Smaug.

24 Season 4 is my version of a happy ending. I'm not saying I didn't enjoy the rest of the show, but God damn, Jack didn't deserve that many bad days.
